Howto | Configure KNetwork Manager

Posted in: technology. Tagged: howto, linux, knetwork-manager

The Issue

KNetworkManager does not like inheriting a pre-existing /etc/network/interfaces file.

The Solution

Comment out all but the following from your /etc/network/interfaces:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

Add the user to the netdev group:

$ sudo adduser your_username netdev
